This entry honours the self-representation of Jain tradition. India's sacred landscape includes hundreds of traditions beyond the Brahminical-Vedic canon — Jain, Buddhist, Sikh, Sufi Muslim, Zoroastrian, tribal Gondi/Bhil/Khasi, and many more. Each has its own cosmology, theology, ethical system, and sacred geography. Each deserves first-person recognition, not assimilation. - Location: Shravanabelagola, Hassan, Karnataka (12.8572°N, 76.4883°E) - Tradition: Jain / Digambara
